Answer 1

答案：C;D;C;D;C;A;D;B;A;C;C;D;B;A;A;C;B;B;D;A
解析：

1．从上下文看Frobisher太太应该是一位上了年纪的老太太，她用手杖支撑自己的身体从座位上站起，故用support。 2．pushed towards意思是“往前猛戳了过去”，D符合句意。 3．心脏跳动的专用词语，既可以作动词，也可以充当名词。 4．由于用力猛，“倒”在椅子上，fell比其他词准确。 5．B和D离故事情节太远，很容易排除。由于描写的是动作，beginning要比表示心理活动的be going to（打算）准确，所以选C 6．“逃跑无望”，只能选hope 7．“捡起手杖”应该用补语pick up 8．因为刚结束紧张的围捕，“气喘吁吁”表达得很维妙维肖，故用breathing 9．由于要记姓名和地址，我们自然想到警察从口袋里拿出来的应该是笔和本子，在铅笔和本子之间。选择本子而不选择铅笔则多是出于逻辑常识。 10．A、B和D都表示“击打”，根据情节，刚才那一手杖肯定是打上了，所以这三项显然不妥。所以老太太关心的是“我没把他打伤吧?”。 11．从此空往下面看几行，我们得知银行有悬赏，所以可以断定此人是抢银行的，因此用bank 12．“收到信息”应该用informed 13．据后面的for him here再参照故事的开头，可知警察是在这里“守候”罪犯的到来，故用waited 14．C和D显然和问题不相干，可以轻松排除，不构成做题的困难。movement一般指大的运动而不指具体的动作。 15．见第一段的最后一句he fell heavily to the ground 16．“看布告”在英语中应该是read a notice 17．故事发生在伦敦，货币单位应该是英镑。 18．客气委婉地说法在此用kindly最妥。 19．“毫无疑问”no doubt，在本句中类似于插入成分。 20．老太太今天的壮举纠正了自己以前常认为自己“无用”的错觉。
